Controlling Multiple Optical
Switch Modules
With your platform, you can set common parameters and simultaneously
operate several modules of the same kind in a single interface, which is
particularly useful in larger systems.
Note: You should be familiar with the configuration and operation of a single
module before controlling multiple modules simultaneously.
Starting a Multimodule Application
The multimodule applications available will change according to your
module configuration (model, type, etc.).
Note: When you start a multimodule application, you cannot open a monitor
window at the same time, as it is possible with a single-module
application. You must open the monitor window independently.
To start a multimodule application:
1. In IQS Manager, select the Integrated Applications function tab.
2. Click the appropriate Multiple Module Controller button.
The multimodule application appears in a new window.
Note: More than one Multiple Module Controller button may be displayed if
different models are present in your platform.
